"What happened?" Aunt Tong ran out of the house when she saw Linglong being supported by a blanket.
"I'm fine, I just twisted my ankle while walking down the mountain."
"You went up the mountain?" Aunt Tong was surprised.
Zheng Tiansen only remembered to greet the quartermaster, and indeed did not tell the Tong family.
Not seeing Linglong come back, Aunt Tong thought that Linglong had gone to work in the cafeteria after returning from the city after sending someone there.
Linglong said, "Well, I've wanted to go up the mountain before, and Brother Zheng happened to be free today, so I asked him to take me up."
She quickly took the entire blame on herself, fearing that Aunt Tong would blame Zheng Tiansen for her injury.
Zheng Tiansen helped her sit on the stool and put the basket full of things on the ground.
But Aunt Tong was not in the mood to care about the basket at this moment.
I have already searched through all the boxes and cabinets for medicinal wine.
"Auntie, I have some medicinal wine. I'll get it and bring it over to you later."
Congcong walked to Linglong's side and knew she was injured, with tears in her eyes. "Mom, it hurts, ouch."
He accidentally fell before, and his mother patted him.
"Don't cry, Congcong. Congcong is really amazing. Mommy doesn't feel any pain anymore."
Congcong really thought that his blowing had a great effect, so he puffed out his cheeks and blew even harder.
Linglong was just moved and smiled.
Zheng Tiansen saw this and felt relieved for Linglong. Linglong's love for this boy was not in vain. He loved him no less than her own father.
Afraid that Linglong's wound would get worse if left for too long, Zheng Tiansen did not stay any longer and quickly went to his dormitory to find medicinal wine.
This medicinal wine of his was not given by the military doctor in the army, but his father got it from somewhere and gave him a bottle at the time. However, it is very effective.
He hurriedly took the medicinal wine and hurried back.
In fact, Aunt Tong could also make the medicinal wine paste for Linglong, but she used the excuse that she was not good at it and handed the task over to Zheng Tiansen.
First, her feet were held up to look at, then her back was rubbed, and after that she was stroked again. Her delicate body was already numb, so she decided to just go for it and rub it.
But she didn't dare to make eye contact with Zheng Tiansen, nor did she dare to speak. She tilted her head deliberately to tease Congcong.
Zheng Tiansen did not push his luck any further. He just told Linglong to tell him if she felt the strength was appropriate, and then he started to work seriously.
The smell of the medicinal wine was very strong. The adults were still laughing. Congcong stood next to Linglong with a frown on his face.
When Zheng Tiansen stood up, Linglong quickly asked him to wash his hands.
It was already this late, but Aunt Tong refused to let Zheng Tiansen leave and asked him to stay for dinner.
Zheng Tiansen was eager to stay here a little longer, so he agreed immediately.
Because Linglong sprained her ankle, Aunt Tong stopped her from cooking and took on all the cooking work herself.
Linglong then reminded Aunt Tong that there were still some usable ingredients in her basket.
However, Aunt Tong looked through them and found that none of them were useful.
"I don't know how to make these complicated things. You can use them when you are old enough." Mainly because she felt that these things were rare and it would be a waste if she didn't know how to make them.
Linglong felt a little helpless, but there was nothing she could do.
While Aunt Tong was cooking, Congcong took his toy car and pushed it on the ground, while Linglong took her textbook and continued reading.
Just like Zheng Tiansen, she could just ask him anything she didn't know.
She was reading seriously, and Zheng Tiansen didn't sit idly by either. He simply took the textbook she didn't use and read it as a review.
As soon as Tong Dazhu entered the room, he smelled the smell of medicinal wine. He frowned and asked, "Who's injured?"
"Brother, it's me. I accidentally sprained my ankle."
"Is it serious?"
"It's okay. Brother Zheng said it will probably be gone tomorrow."
"That's it." Tong Dazhu breathed a sigh of relief.
"Congcong, do you miss your uncle?" He picked up Congcong and lifted him up high.
Fortunately, Congcong was brave and not afraid, and looked excited.
Knowing that Linglong planned to adopt Congcong and Congcong started calling Linglong "mom", Tong Dazhu called himself uncle.
Seeing that Congcong liked to play like this, Zheng Tiansen silently took note of it.
When Tong Dazhu came back, Zheng Tiansen stopped reading and talked to him in a low voice.
When Auntie Peitong called for dinner, the two of them stood up and helped serve the food.
Linglong also wanted to help, but was ordered to sit down.
After dinner, Zheng Tiansen and Linglong moved to the inner room to study for a while before he got up and left.
After returning to his own dormitory and lying down to rest, Zheng Tiansen felt indescribably satisfied when recalling every little detail of his time with Linglong.
He raised his hand and looked at his watch.
He suddenly remembered something.
By the way, when was Linglong born?
Linglong doesn't even have a watch now, so it's inconvenient for her to check the time. Why don't you wait until she's old enough and give her a watch.
Thinking of this, Zheng Tiansen became excited.
He didn't remember the exact date of Linglong's birthday, but he didn't plan to ask Linglong directly.
The next day he took some time off and went to look at Linglong's information.
When I looked at the time, it wouldn't take long.
Linglong is the 15th day of the last month of April.
In a few days it will be April.
It seems that he needs to move quickly.
Linglong's legs were indeed as Zheng Tiansen said, and they were almost healed by the next day. Seeing that there was nothing unusual about her movements for a few days, Linglong breathed a sigh of relief. She didn't want to delay her work.
Missing the things in her basket, she picked some out to pack before going to work.
After arriving at the cafeteria, she found an opportunity to secretly give it to Sister Niu.
"Where did this come from?" Sister Niu wondered.
"Picking flowers on the mountain. I went up the mountain yesterday." Lingling whispered.
"What, you went up the mountain? How come you are so brave? Aren't you afraid of danger?" Sister Niu frowned.
"Sister Niu, I didn't go up there alone. Brother Zheng was also there."
"Is that so?" Aunt Niu laughed. "You young people are really interesting." The date was all held in the mountains.
Linglong's cheeks flushed at the teasing, "I didn't tell you that."
Seeing her embarrassed, Sister Niu laughed even more happily.
You're still not married, and you're shy about such a small thing.
Besides her family, Linglong only told Sister Niu about what happened in the mountains.
Apart from some minor incidents, she also felt that the time spent in the mountains was quite pleasant.
If there is another chance, she still wants to go.
Alas, I don’t know where Li Chunlei and Li Jie are now.
Thinking of her two friends who had left, she felt a little melancholy again.
I can only comfort myself that separation is for a better meeting.
Maybe when we meet again in a few days, they will all be doing well.
Thinking of this, Linglong's mood brightened up, and she started to work while humming a tune.
Having skipped work yesterday, she must perform well tomorrow and live up to the quartermaster's goodwill.
Linglong didn't realize that her self-regulation ability was getting better and better, and she was becoming more optimistic and cheerful.
In fact, the relationship with Zheng Tiansen and him had a great impact on her, but she didn't notice it.
The people around her did feel the same way, but no one pointed it out to her, and everyone was happy to see it happen.
